Following a period of silence, CD Projekt RED has reassured fans that it’s still working on Cyberpunk 2077 expansions alongside further game improvements. As spotted by folks on Reddit (via TheGamer), quest director Pawel Sasko said during a recent livestream that there is still work to be done on the game and the development team is engaged on a daily basis.
Cyberpunk 2077 expansions have yet to be dated
CD Projekt RED never officially announced a release date for any of Cyberpunk 2077’s expansions. However, they’re expected to launch later in 2022 or early 2023. In the meantime, Sasko has offered some solace by reassuring fans that the content is being worked on. “We’re still improving the game because we are all aware that there is work to be done,” he said during the livestream. “We’re very happy you guys liked [patch] 1.5, and that gives us more incentive to work for you guys because you show your appreciation for it. That’s as much as I can tell you: we are working on stuff for you. Like, I’m literally daily reviewing quests, talking to people about stuff, so it is happening.” Sasko went on to reiterate that he’s unable to share any details about CD Projekt RED’s future plans but but he can confirm “we are working on expansions – we’re working on stuff for you guys.”
Opinion: Cyberpunk 2077 is a masterclass on how not to launch a game
Zarmena writes… Considering Cyberpunk 2077’s launch fiasco, it’s unlikely that CD Projekt RED will announce or show anything off until it’s ready, and I continue to be surprised by fans badgering the studio to show something. One party learned its lesson, the other evidently didn’t. Despite the need for further improvements and patches, the game works well on next-gen platforms and should have skipped last-gen consoles entirely. I’m curious to see what becomes of the expansions and how CDPR plans to handle their cross-gen release.
In other news, we got our first look at Kingdom Hearts 4 yesterday, and the next Need for Speed is reportedly next-gen only.
